have you considered how many americans would be happy to pay to just go ahead and incarcerate poor kids right now

anything to divert attention away from his pedophilia habit

and the economy will continue to tank more and more as AI continues to fulfill the only feasible promise it ever had: replacing human workers (competently or not, doesn’t matter)

but as these shitty bullshit AIs continue to train and poison themselves with their own generated slop, the only way to go is worse.

and then when the AI bubble bursts spectacularly, maybe some corps will go under. but definitely even more layoffs

edit: example case: helpline nonprofit org fires their human workers to replace them with a chatbot, which proceeds to do the opposite of what it was sold as

so glad i got to experience this game when it came out. it’s dated to the point of unplayable now, but back then it was one of the best around

as it turns out, the most unforgivable sin is teaching children that it’s normal and good and correct to feel empathy for the people you’re genociding

Those that were lucky enough to be born into stability get upset when reality intrudes on their life. They blame everyone but themselves and enjoy the pain and suffering of others they blame for it.

as i mentioned in another comment, this is literally the magatrump mindset.

His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.

and you’re talking about

I bet he hasn’t once cared for some ex employee of his in any tangible way

inserting the assumption that the author has actually had employees. why is that? for that matter, why are so many employers trump voters? obviously: money.

you’re right in that they’ve stolen the “conservative” label and made it synonymous with fascism. “conservative” as a valid stance deserving of regard and consideration died with john mccain. now they’re all fucking trumpcult fascists with zero redeeming qualities.

i don’t know what to tell you. talk to your “conservative” friends and try to convince them that trump is a sack of worthless shit who’s ruining the country and the world?

good luck

conservative culture.

Even so, he said given the choices on the ballot, he still would have voted for Trump

see, this is why i don’t have even a subatomic particle of sympathy for these people. yea, they’ll lament over their own livelihoods being completely destroyed, but they’d STILL vote for trump, for reasons that, at this point, don’t need explaining anymore

i’m glad they’re suffering

good.

same thing one generation ago, when it was “why are millennials killing applebees?!?”

womp fucking womp

as a gen X degenerate, my last remaining sliver of hope resides in the younger generations, who, unlike my peers and older, seem to have much more awareness of the system designed entirely around endlessly exploiting and enslaving the 99.999%

what’s hilarious is that if people actually did significantly cut back on christmas spending, then maga would start whining and crying that people aren’t spending enough money and “why do liberals hate white jesus” or some shit

of course it’ll never happen

absolutely agree, but literally everything he’s ever done in office has been a disaster. covid, 1/6, completely fucking the supreme court, the anti-LGBT, anti-black, anti-woman everything, the wrecking of any kind of relationship with allies-- it all goes on and on, and these are ignoring the fraud, raping, crimes and blatant corruption throughout every microsecond of his life

he literally wants to take the country back to the slave trade and genocide days, and so far, nothing anyone is doing is stopping it

how do i block every post from a .ml user?

trump is shaping up to be the worst thing this country has ever done

“hurt people” as a reason not to release the files

good. the “people” in this case are child rapist pedophiles. so yes, fucking hurt them.

lol “heart of the car” gtfo

rear view cameras are nice (though unnecessary), but literally NOTHING else about “infotainment” is worth the extra cost. you think it is because you’ve been convinced you just simply can’t survive without it, and cars can’t even exist without it. why? because $$$

fuck outta my face with that shit

so, my takeaway from all this is that toyota is still the best way to go if you for some reason just have to buy a “infotainment” car

i read somewhere that if you only speak english and want to learn another language, then dutch would be the easiest–makes sense now

the “newest” car i’ve ever owned is from 2008… are hondas and toyotas really equally as shitty as fucking dodge and chevy now?

laws are literally meaningless when no one enforces them.

AI storytelling is an amalgam of several different narratives, including:

Inevitability: AI is the future; its eventual supremacy is both imminent and certain, and therefore anyone who doesn’t want to be left behind had better embrace the technology. See Jensen Huang, the CEO of Nvidia, insisting earlier this year that every job in the world will be impacted by AI “immediately.”

Functionality: AI performs miracles, and the AI products that have been released to the public wildly outperform the products they aim to replace. To believe this requires us to ignore the evidence obtained with our own eyes and ears, which tells us in many cases that the products barely work at all, but it’s the premise of every TV ad you watch out of the corner of your eye during a sports telecast.

Grandiosity: The world will never be the same; AI will change everything. This is the biggest and most important story AI companies tell, and as with the other two narratives, big tech seems determined to repeat it so insistently that we come to believe it without looking for any evidence that it’s true.

As far as I can make out, the scheme is essentially: Keep the ship floating for as long as possible, keep inhaling as much capital as possible, and maybe the tech will get somewhere that justifies the absurd valuations, or maybe we’ll worm our way so far into the government that it’ll have to bail us out, or maybe some other paradigm-altering development will fall from the sky. And the way to keep the ship floating is to keep peddling the vision and to seem more confident that the dream is inevitable the less it appears to be coming true.

speaking for myself, MS can thank AI for being the thing that made me finally completely ditch windows after using it 30+ years

you’re on the right track, but i think it’s even stupider than that. all that really needs to happen is to somehow get it through their empty cinderblock skulls that measles is actually even more contagious than gayness and woke, and that vaccines love jesus and guns

but still, good luck with any of this
